Cookware for Steam Cooking
Ordinary baking tins, heat-resistant tins and roasting dishes are suita-
ble for steam cooking.
Do not use enamelled baking tins! Chrome steel food containers are
also very suitable.
Oven Levels
The appropriate oven level can be found in the following table. Be
careful to count oven levels starting from the bottom.
3 General Tips
For cooking times longer than 30 minutes or when cooking larger
quantities, top up water, if necessary.
With Vigorous Steam and Interval Steam take out the grease filter;
otherwise, cooking time is longer.
If not used for long periods, thoroughly rinse out the water drawer,
connecting hoses and steam generator (see Chapter "Care and Clean-
ing").
How to use the Steam Cooking Tables
The Tables give the required temperature settings, cooking times and
oven levels for a selection of typical dishes.
Temperatures and cooking times are for guidance only, as these will
depend on the composition and size of the food, the quantity and
type of ovenware.
If you cannot find the settings for a particular recipe, look for the
one that is most similar.
Unless otherwise stated, the values given in the tables assume that
steam cooking is started with the oven cold.
